hello everyone,
I am new to the board and have a question about steel tanks and age.
I ran into someone at work which has two steel tanks he would like to give
me because he no longer dives. My concern is that he told me they were
about 20 yrs old ,so is there a problem with older tanks as far as inspections.
I havent seen the tanks yet, but I would hate to pass up some good tanks.
He only did a few dives with them and then they went into storage. Opinions ?
I dont plan on going diving with them without a complete inspection, but I
dont want to waste time or have to figure out what to do with them if older
tanks have issues meeting inspection requirements.
Thanks,
Aerospace
